Terrence entered the foster care system as a teenager and faced many challenges when he turned 18 and moved into Extended Foster Care. It took him years to manage his mental health issues, but through resilience, he built a strong support system. He is focused on college, majoring in social work to help children who have gone through similar experiences. Terrence wants to be a voice of support and advocacy for those in need. Outside of school, he enjoys spending time with friends, dining out, and exploring his town. He is working to create a life of connection and purpose. With hope for the future, Terrence is determined to make a difference.

Terrence would like an air fryer to help him cook healthy, affordable meals as he transitions into full independence. After aging out of care, he’s now responsible for paying his own rent and bills while attending community college. An air fryer would be the perfect kitchen essential, helping him prepare nutritious meals without the cost or hassle of eating out. With his busy schedule and new financial responsibilities, the air fryer would make mealtime simpler, save him money, and give him the confidence to take care of himself in his new home.
